A simply elegant comfy pullover. The body starts out in Stockinette and then transitions into lovely textured stitches making it a fun and interesting knit. It is designed with positive ease but can be made to fit as desired. I used the pretty Meyer May color way from The Plucky Knitter in the primo worsted base for the sample. Cast on and add a comfortable, colorful knit to your wardrobe.

Sizes:
Finished bust: 36 (40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64)”/90 (100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160) cm.
Materials:
Yarn: Plucky Knitter Primo Worsted; 75% merino wool, 20% cashmere, 5% nylon; 200 yds/183 m per 115g skein; color: Meyer May; 4 (5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8) skeins; 802 (894, 1006, 1108, 1185, 1307, 1438, 1566) yds/734 (818, 921, 1013, 1084, 1196, 1315, 1433) m Estimated yardage is slightly over this number of skeins; actual yardage may be more or less – consider having an additional skein on hand.
Needles: Size 7/4.5mm 16”/40cm and 24”/60cm circular needles and set of 4 or 5 double-pointed needles.
Other: Stitch markers, tapestry needle.
Gauge: 18 sts and 28 rnds = 4”/10cm in Stockinette Stitch.

Notes: This sweater is a compound raglan constructed from the top down in one piece. It is modeled with a 6”/15cm of positive ease, but if you desire a closer fit, choose a size that measures only slightly larger than your bust. The neckband is work in the Twisted Purl Stitch, the upper body is worked in Stockinette stitch, then the Twisted Purl Stitch is gradually incorporated into the lower body in peaked triangles, until all the stitches are worked in the Twisted Purl Stitch. The sleeves are worked in Stockinette stitch to the cuff. Body and sleeve lengths can be adjusted.
